"My Hero Academia" Author Brings Back The Yandere For Latest Manga Hype - Plus Summer Festival Themed Limited Goods

Brokenhearted My Hero Academia fans got a treat from Kōhei Horikoshi's Twitter feed this morning as popular villain Himiko Toga, absent as the manga sets up the next arc, showed up in a sketch. Other than thanking fans and noting that the Shonen Jump with chapter 98 goes on sale today, no context was offered, but the sketch does look an awful lot like a follow-up to his Valentine's one.

今日発売のジャンプに98話目載ってます、よろしくお願い致します。 http://pic.twitter.com/a24yUjr1kG

それと息抜きにバレンタインデーの落書きです。単行本で読んでくれている方はまだ未見のキャラクターかもしれません。7巻で確か二コマだけ出てます。 http://pic.twitter.com/1ADqHBJSP8

Speaking of trends, in his previous two chapters hype sketches (95 didn't get one), Horikoshi accidentally repeated his character selection, then implicitly apologized for playing favorites.

先週の宣伝でも同じキャラ描いてた、気づきませんでした。

An a more heroic note, the summer festival themed limited goods offered at Bandai Namco's Character Pop Stores in Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya have been previewed ahead of their July 16th debut.
